6. Install the 2 caliper bracket mounting bolts.
Tighten the brake caliper bracket mounting bolts to 175 Nm (121 ft. lbs.), 15 Series.
Tighten the brake caliper bracket mounting bolts to 300 Nm (221 ft. lbs.), 25 Series.

The caliper mounting bolts are below.

2. Install the 2 brake caliper mounting bolts.
Tighten the bolts to 108 Nm (80 lb ft).

This video should help as well
